Hi all,
Those are good-looking cars. Jason Midyette did an outstanding job on the gons. I think the 30' cars keep the "freight" feeling alive. I fondly remember the "early days" on the C&TS when they ran the converted boxes and stock cars.
Railstar has done an exceptional job up there, and the operation is a pleasure to ride and photograph.
I also understand the need for all-weather cars, and I was curious if anyone could bring us up to date on the status of the passenger cars that I heard are coming down from the White Pass, i.e. how many, where they are now, etc.
Thanks,
Norm in Denver
